youre misinterpreting german law to a very generic american standard its a crime but not really for normal people just drunk in a bar with many caveats below you basically have to be a media figure or politician attempting to garner a right wing audience and inciting a crowd because of it its like me standing in mississippi and demanding the kill niggers party finally be respected or my crowd burns down washington dc its the equivalent of inciting a riot with the addition of political intent and it has to be specific to those incidents years ago you can go to a german museum and bitch about it plenty lord knows museum island in berlin is filled with people making excuses for dead jews they dont have police waiting for you to speak against the holocaust
